🔧 Baldurs Gate 3: Dramatically increase performance / FPS with any setup! *BEST SETTINGS* 📈✅ - Lemmy.zip

I’m not affiliated with this YouTuber, but I thought this might be useful to someone else. I have a RTX 3080/Ryzen 5800x/32 GB machine and was hovering around 30-40 FPS even after turning a lot of settings down. I think I just haven’t kept up with the best combination of settings. This video got me up to an average of 70-80 FPS (except for in denser areas, where it can drop to 45).

Your specs are slightly better than mine and I’m running at a stable 144fps at 1440p with everything maxed out. I guess you’re running at 4k? Even so I would expect your framerate to be higher than that

yeah, i’m at 1440/144 on a 3070ti/5800x.

Thanks to you both for the info on your specs/frame rates. The first numbers I quoted were at 1440p. I believe the guide recommended starting at 4k, so I think the 70-80 FPS is at 4k. I’ll have to continue to tweak.

Side note - what’s the general consensus on DDU (Display Drive Uninstaller). Do you all use that each time there is a new NVIDIA driver? I’m just wondering if I have a more base level issue.

Display Driver Uninstaller

Is this some 3rd party nonsense? If it is, expect that it is spyware at best and malware at worst. Just let the Nvidia installer do it’s thing. If you want to uninstall the old driver first then just check “clean install” in the advanced installation options.

DDU is a great tool. It’s just wholly unnesseccary when you’re moving from a working driver install, to an updated driver install for the same card.

Use DDU when you’re buying a new card, or facing problems.

I guess if you’re a clown that doesn’t know how to use device manager it’s a good tool. Such unnecessary shit lol

Oh what tool is it that cleans all the files left over from installer?
